  • Aveiro, Aveiro, Portugal
    Visit the city of Aveiro on board one of your typical boats with a view of the 4 main urban canals. During the cruise you will have the company of our guides who will explain what you are seeing during the trip and will tell you some “secrets” of the beautiful city of Aveiro.
  • Canal Central de Aveiro, Aveiro, Portugal
    Main channel of the city of Aveiro
  • Casa de Cha Arte Nova, Aveiro, Portugal
    Partnership with Silva Rocha and Ernesto Korrodi is the practical translation of the originality and talent of the two artists, materialized in one of the most beautiful buildings in the city. Considered by all as an architectural "ex-libris", the richness of its facade results from the skillfully sculpted stone, combined with the art of wrought iron, one of the most representative materials of this artistic movement. Also noteworthy is the eagle that, from the top of the front elevation, enhances and enhances this architectural piece. Currently, the Museum of Art and a Tea House operate here, which at the end of the day becomes a night entertainment bar.
  • Museu de Arte Nova, Aveiro, Portugal
    Art Nouveau Major Pessoa House.
  • Antiga Capitania do Porto de Aveiro, Aveiro, Portugal
    The Captaincy building of the Port of Aveiro currently belongs to the Municipality of Aveiro. It is also known as “Capitania dos Arcos” and its history is really long. This building, whose first floor was built in 1830 on the arcades of a tidal mill, is one of the most emblematic in the city and is distinguished by its superior architectural quality. It functioned as a support building for the José Ferreira Pinto Basto porcelain factory, which founded the internationally known brand Vista Alegre. Later, in 1903 a second floor was built for the installation of the School of Industrial Design, which operated there until 1918. In the same year, it was sold to a private individual, with the side tile panel being placed. A few years later, in 1925, the building was sold to the Ministry of the Navy for Captaincy services. At the end of the 20th century, it underwent renovation works for the installation of the Municipal Assembly. Nowadays it also works as an art gallery.
  • Centro de Congressos de Aveiro, Aveiro, Portugal
    The Cultural and Congress Center is part of an emblematic building of Aveiro's industrial architecture. “Fábrica Jerónimo Pereira de Campos” is the old designation of this building, built between 1915 and 1917, according to a project by Architect José Olímpio. Since its opening in 1995, it has become a space par excellence for congresses, work meetings, exhibitions, concerts and plays. Currently, the building also houses the Institute of Employment and Professional Training, the Employment Center and the services of the Municipality of Aveiro. In the artificial lake is located the beautiful statue of "Maria da Fonte". In the sixties, a Puritan movement shocked by its nakedness removed the statue from the square where it was, to a more modest place (in Parque Infante D. Pedro). It was placed here much later, to give luck to young unmarried girls, and now rivals the Maneken Pis from Brussels and the Copenhagen mermaid in miraculous abilities.
  • Monumento ao Ovo Mole, Aveiro, Portugal
    Sculptural set of 5 elements; 3 with the shapes used in traditional Aveiro egg sweets, the barrel, the mussel, the whelk; and two in a parallelepiped form where the configuration of the same elements can be seen, in an excavated mold, as if they had been removed. (Source: DRC Centro)
  • Forum Aveiro, Aveiro, Portugal
    Forum Aveiro, opened on September 29, 1998, was the first open-air shopping center in the country. Representing a new type of shopping center concept in Portugal, where gardens, green areas and public spaces predominate, it was presented to the public as an innovative shopping center. Forum Aveiro is located in the heart of the city of Aveiro and was awarded the "Mipim Award 1999" for the best shopping center in Europe and, in 2018, received the “Portugal Five Stars” award, in the category of “Shopping Centers of Portugal".

  • Antigo Cais de S. Roque 83, 3800-256 Aveiro, Portugal
    The Salpoente restaurant, located on the Cais de São Roque, in Aveiro, brings together in one space two old Armazéns de Sal - historical heritage of the city. Salpoente is a tribute to the people and raw materials of the Ria de Aveiro region, recreated in an excellent cuisine. A poetry of flavors and feelings, through a modern and contemporary environment that pays homage to art, tradition and the creation of moments that endure time. (Source: Restaurante Salpoente)
  • Estatuas da Ponte, Aveiro, Portugal
    Set of four bronze statues placed at the four ends of the bridge over the Central Canal, currently Praça Humberto Delgado. All of them are full-length, yet have dimensions below the real. Each statue represents a traditional figure of the city, two of them from work, Salineira and Marnoto; and the remaining characteristics of the feast days: Parceira do Ramo and Fogueteiro. THE SALINEIRA: uses traditional costumes and a canasta on his head; MARNOTO: uses traditional labor costumes and instruments characteristic of the work of salt (branch); THE PARTNER OF THE BRANCH: wears the traditional feminine clothes of the feast day, sporting a long shawl. In his right hand he holds a bouquet of flowers that will be given to the new stewards; THE ROCKET: wears the traditional gabon, over the Sunday clothes, buckle shoes, cap and in the left hand the rocket.

It wasn't a great experience. The Guide barely spoke loud enough to hear half of what he said. Nor did he seem very coordinated with the Moliceiro. We had a problem with the Reservation. We made it online in the market of the same company and we got the proof four days after the purchase! They put a bad face on us by showing only the proof of mail and good thing Tiago, from AveiNest where we stayed interceded for us.

The normal channel circuit, I guess like everyone else, but the Guide who was supposed to tell us what we were seeing horrifying. He limited himself to reading what the posters said and the rest of the time telling stale, casual jokes based on Spain's Eurovision performances and Ramon Garcia's Grand Prix program. We left with the same information we had entered
